Community Insider: Rob Locke

Tell us a little about yourself.

I work to enjoy what I do, whether it be work, family life, fitness or sport. My wife Laura and son Theo are who I spend my time with when I’m not at the Generator and we all love to snowboard or wakeboard, with lots of time during the summer spent in or around the sea. My professional experience originates from development and eCommerce. I have worked to lead businesses to embrace technology to create efficiencies or solutions to aid growth and create a viable online business.

Tell us a bit about what you do.

I run and manage Kodal, we specialise in eCommerce and software development. I founded Kodal 3 years ago to offer a more bespoke approach to online solutions, but we quickly found that every project was different. We have embraced this and so focus on being a software development company specialising in Magento, CraftCMS and some Wordpress.

What events will you be attending this month (business or social)?

I’m going Snowboarding to La Plagne with my family and friends in February if that counts?

When did you first join The Generator?

July 2016.

Why did you join The Generator?

To create a base of operation for my business, somewhere I could grow.

What is your favourite part of The Generator?

The location, being on the Quay is great. I have also formed some great friends and enjoy coming to work to see my buddies. People know our team it’s comforting and complimentary that we’re often looked to for advice or even engaged to work with others in the office.
